What should I do???

I really like the ralliart, but I also really like the new Evo Mr's coming out in august 8- x So I'm wondering, should I trade or sell my car, and get an Evo Mr. Or should I just turbo the hell outta my ralliart and make it faster than an evo? i really like the mr's though.

Fareastkorean: Ralliart and Evo are essentially not in the same class. Few things you have to consider:
1. Application of the car. (Street driving, Race, Rally?)
2. Resale value of your Ralliart (you will loose money for sure)
3. Your budget
For an Evo, you need at least 20K more on the top of your Ralliart, however to turbocharged your Ralliart to be able to go FAST, 5k is Stage 2e already.

It is not wise to spend 20K more just for style and name.

hmm, my ralliart only has 7k mileage, but yea i see what your saying once i drive it off the lot i lost a few grand right there. Mainly i will lose more money selling it back to the dealer, i can sell it for a bit more to a regular person. But yea, anyways are u that guy who had his ralliart turbod? I really want to turbo my ralliart, but i might wait for RRM, rrm has the best stuff. that toronto350 website's turbo looks nice too, but im not to sure about that stage 2 turbo that does about 340 at the crank. It seems kinda odd a turbo adding 180 hps. How much for the turbo u put on your car? Also does the kit come with everything I need so my engine doesn't fail.

No offense, but Mitsubishi is Mitsubishi, it is not like Honda or Toyota which has an excellence resale value.
For the Turbocharged, EssentialSpeed done a very good job with our project Ralliart. They are credibility well known on the Rotary's World, from MazdaSpeed RX7,RX8, etc. Plenty of racers come from the states to essentialspeed for their turbo and racing tunning. They have more than 15 years experience in the 'real' proffessional Racing, drag racing and open touring class.

Regarding your concern about the power can be produced by their turbo kit, you have to pay closer attention to what we are saying, 180hp can be produced easily @ around 14-16 Psi, however this could be done safetly only at stage 3e turbo kit, namely fuel system and ignition need to be upgraded.
For your information, with EssentialSpeed's stage2i running just @ 5psi (very low low), we hit mid. 13's on the 1/4 miles.
